SS&G Financial Services -- Outsource business grows 75%.

Accounting firm reported 75% growth in its outsourcing business when back-end operations could be managed remotely for multi-unit restaurant franchises, such as Papa John's Pizza, Damon's Grill, Qdoba Mexican Grill and Romano's Macaroni Grill. With real-time visibility into each restaurant, SS&G also acts as a virtual CFO, providing the franchisees with valuable consulting services.

"The restaurant business is starving for accounting outsource services," said Brad Saltz, Director at SS&G Financial Services. "Intacct ERP On Demand gives us the platform to satisfy the market's appetite, using a secure, reliable and profitable solution."

Langan Associates -- New accounts are set up in days.

Rather than months of installing and configuring hardware and software, the country's largest accounting firm to exclusively serve the not-for-profit industry can set up new clients in a few days. Boasting a client list of over 350 organizations, Langan simply clones charts of accounts, migrates data and provides online access when national associations add regional chapters.

"The CFOs have told us the migration to Intacct is the smoothest financial systems migration they have ever experienced," said Nat Bartholomew, partner at Langan Associates. "Switching accounting systems is always dangerous. But with no new hardware or software to configure, we quickly upload the files to Intacct's open platform without any data loss."

Haney Accountants -- Customer base expected to double.

Originally limited to acquiring customers based in Northern California, Haney Accountants this year expects to double the number of homeowner association clients. The firm can now deliver accounting, budgeting and human resource services to housing complexes throughout the West Coast.

"We have built the business around the Intacct application because it is the only solution out there that allows us to be a paperless, virtual controller," said Donald Haney, CPA, president of Haney Accountants.

CMA Outsourcing, LLC -- 25% productivity boost for customers.

Handing off back office accounting tasks to CMA Outsourcing allows customers to turn their attention to core front office business tasks. On average, a customer can expect productivity -- time spent in the front office -- to increase by 20% to 30% when CMA manages the back office.

"Outsourcing is a great complement to our portfolio of services, such as tax and advisory services," said Michael Robb, principal at CMA Outsourcing. "Being able to provide Web-based outsourced accounting services across a variety of industries give us an attractive advantage over our competition."
